Limiting the Number of Simultaneous Jobs from the Command Line Interface

You can limit the number of simultaneous data and log backup jobs that run on a client.

Procedure

1. Use the qlogin command to log onto the CommServe.

2. On the command line, go to software_installation_directory/Base and type one of the following commands:

   • Limit the number of simultaneous data backup jobs:

      
     qoperation execscript -sn $[SetLimitRunningJobs] -si '$[client]'|'$[Oracle_RAC_pseudo_client_name]' -si '$[DataCount]' -si $[limit]

     where limit is the number of data backup jobs that are allowed to run simultaneously.

   • Limit the number of simultaneous log backup jobs (if a job contains both data and logs the job is not limited):

      
     qoperation execscript -sn $[SetLimitRunningJobs] -si '$[client]'|'$[Oracle_RAC_pseudo_client_name]' -si '$[LogCount]' -si $[limit]

     where limit is the number of log backup jobs that are allowed to run simultaneously.

3. Run the qlogout command to log off the CommServe computer.
